Ruby gem wrapper around WorldCat Discovery API.
Please Note: This API is not yet in production and this documentation is only published for our group of alpha release testers for feedback purposes only.
Prior to installing this gem manually as outlined below, you will need to go through the same process for the OCLC::Auth gem for the API key dependency.
